If you're reading this, chances are you're struggling with the same problem we had. Every single time.
We've been there.
After far too many bruised elbows and muttered frustrations, we finally decided to do something about our ridiculously small HDB toilet. Best decision we made for our 2026 renovation.
Here is our honest, no-fluff experience buying and installing a **Slide and Swing Door** from **Renovaid Team**.

## The Search for a Solution
My journey began with late-night Googling. Keywords like "HDB HDB bathroom door toilet door" and "bathroom door Singapore" were my constant search companions.
That's when I came across Renovaid Team.
I'll be honest – I wasn't sure at first. Another home improvement company? But the more I read, the more I liked what I saw.
What stood out to me:
- Proper credentials – BCA registered and Bizsafe certified
- A local factory, not just a middleman
- Been around since 2014 – that's a good sign
- Clear pricing with no hidden costs
After a few days of research and comparing with other suppliers, we decided to take the plunge.
By the way, if you need doors for other rooms, Renovaid Team has an impressive range of **[bedroom doors](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** too. We ended up getting our bedroom doors from them as well – more on that later.

## How It Works (In Simple Terms)
I'll admit – I had no idea what a "slide and swing" door was at first. How can it be both?
Their team broke it down for me in plain English:
The door first slides to the side (like a sliding door), then swings open (like a regular door). Because it slides first, it needs way less space to open.
Here is what I love about it:
- **Trackless design** – I hate cleaning those gross bifold door tracks. Our old bifold door had a track that collected hair, dust, and who-knows-what-else.
- **Space-saving magic** – Our bathroom feels twice as big now.
- **White or grey powder-coated finish** – We went with grey and it looks so sleek.
- **Water resistant** – No more worrying about swelling or rotting.

## What It Was Like Dealing with Renovaid Team
Let me walk you through exactly what happened, so you know what to expect.
### Step 1: The WhatsApp Message
I nervously typed out my first message to their WhatsApp number. No calls – they are strictly WhatsApp only, which I actually appreciated.
Response time was surprisingly quick – a few hours. Asked me for my door size, location, and what I needed.
Quick tip: Have your measurements ready before you message. Saves a lot of back-and-forth.
### Step 2: Booking the Measurement
We scheduled a free on-site measurement. The appointment was easy to book – just a few messages back and forth.
The day of the visit:
- They actually showed up when they said they would – refreshing, I know
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We chose our design – grey frame with a simple acrylic panel
- He measured everything twice (professional!)
Important note: You need to put down a deposit (50% or $100 minimum) during the visit. We used PayNow – super easy. And if you change your mind, there's a $40 fee – fair enough, their time isn't free.
Oh, and make sure the person who makes decisions is home – don't send your helper or a family member who can't approve things. We learnt that the hard way!
### The 14-21 Day Wait
After we confirmed the design and paid the deposit, we were told installation would take 14 to 21 working days. Ours took 18 working days – right in the middle of the estimate.
Not gonna lie – the wait felt long. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth it.
### The Big Day
The night before, their office sent a WhatsApp message between 5 PM and 8 PM with a time window for arrival. They gave us a 10am-12pm window.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. He was friendly, wore a uniform, and had all the tools ready.
The whole installation took about 1.5 hours. He removed our old wooden door (which was literally rotting at the bottom – gross), installed the new slide and swing door, and cleaned up after himself.
Before he left, he asked us to try opening and closing the door to make sure we were happy. He showed us how the mechanism works and how to clean it.
Final payment was made on the spot – again via PayNow. Exactly what they quoted.

## Would We Recommend It?
It's been over a month now, and here is my honest take: **We are genuinely thrilled with it.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Feature | Our Experience |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space saving** | Our bathroom feels 50% bigger. Game changer for small HDB bathrooms. |
| **Trackless floor** | I just mop right under the door. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. My back thanks me. |
| **Smooth operation** | Glides like butter. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Humidity proof** | We've had zero issues with swelling. Looks exactly the same as day one. |
| **Looks** | The grey finish is stunning. Looks modern and expensive. |
### Minor Downsides
Honestly, I'm reaching for complaints here, but if I had to nitpick:
- **The wait time** – 18 days felt long, but they did warn us. Plan ahead if you're in a rush.
- **The $40 fee if you cancel** – Fair, but good to know.
- **Strictly by appointment only** – You can't just show up at their showroom. WhatsApp first!
That's all I've got. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

## The Price – Let's Talk Money
The promotion we got was:
**1 Set Slide & Swing Toilet Door – $399 Nett**
And here is what that $399 covered:
- ✅ Free measurement (they came to us)
- ✅ Free delivery
- ✅ Professional installation by a BCA-registered contractor
- ✅ Free removal and disposal of the old door
No GST surprise. No "transportation fee". No "weekend surcharge".
The price we were quoted was the price we paid. In Singapore renovation terms, that's basically a miracle.
For two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – an even better deal.
The promotion is valid until 31 May 2026, so don't wait too long if you're interested.

## We Loved It So Much – We Bought More Doors!
Here is the funny part – we were so happy with the toilet door, we ended up replacing ALL our old doors.
### Our New Bedroom Doors
Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap. Zero soundproofing.
We upgraded to solid core laminate doors – and wow, what a difference.
The difference is night and day. The laminate finish is scratch-resistant (important with our crazy cat) and water-resistant.
If you are shopping for bedroom doors, I highly recommend checking out their **[bedroom doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** . Options for every budget, from hollow core to premium nyatoh timber. We chose solid core laminate – no regrets.
### The Second Bathroom Got an Upgrade Too
We also replaced the door for our common bathroom. That one got a premium aluminium bifold door.
The bifold is great for narrower spaces. It folds almost completely flat, giving nearly 100% opening clearance.
If you need a toilet door, their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** has basic ($189), premium ($199-229), and top hung roller ($259-269) options. Something for every budget.

## Tips for Anyone Considering a Slide and Swing Door
If you made it this far, here is my advice from someone who has been through it:
1. **Measure your doorway first|Get your measurements sorted early** – You'll need them anyway, so do it upfront.
2. **Have the decision-maker home for measurement|Make sure the boss is home** – Don't send someone who can't say "yes" or "no" to colours and designs. Learn from my mistake!
3. **Be patient with the 14-21 day wait|Expect a 3-4 week wait** – It's normal. Good doors take time to manufacture.
4. **Pay via PayNow or bank transfer – no cheques|Use PayNow – it's easiest** – They don't take cheques. Cash, PayNow, PayLah, or bank transfer only.
5. **Check the door thoroughly before the installer leaves|Test everything before they pack up** – Swing it, slide it, lock it, unlock it. Make sure you're 100% happy. Once they are gone, it's harder to fix issues.
6. **Book an appointment before visiting their showroom|Don't just show up** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. WhatsApp 9898 9268 first or you'll be staring at a locked door.

## Bottom Line – Yes or No?
Looking back at our whole journey, from frustrated Googling to finally having a door that works, **yes, 100%.**
They did exactly what they said they would do.
- No surprise fees
- Professional installation by BCA-registered contractors
- Quality product that actually works
- Clear, honest communication start to finish
The slide and swing door has genuinely improved our daily life. No more bruised hips. No more mouldy tracks. No more swollen wood.
Just a clean, modern, space-saving door that works perfectly every time.
